Things to ponder while taking a shit: Lessons on unfucking your life

Rate this book
This book will help you reach fewer goals in order to achieve your greatest dream of doing nothing, professionally. It will open your mind to how truly insignificant your effort is in the greater scheme of things. You will finish this book (or maybe you won’t) understanding that no matter how much you diet, upskill, downgrade and recycle your plastics, your efforts will always be eclipsed by billionaires, tech bros, side pieces and assholes who do whatever the fuck they want and whenever the fuck they want to.

As you take a mighty shit, I invite you to go on a journey with me to discover how success in life could be measured by living below one’s potential instead of above it. In the arena of below average, very little is asked of you, which sounds like fucking heaven to me. As either Denzel Washington, Cicely Tyson or some other fucker (google isn’t sure) once said, “a uHaul does not follow the hearse.”

So, just fucking chill.

The most profoundly wise collection of thoughts ever assembled in one tome

It is also a good way to pass the time while taking a mighty number two. Seriously there are life lessons to internalize here. I am already working much less, not worrying about other peoples’ mindless complaints about their petty problems, and just generally chilling.

Wise words to live by.

Funny and easy to relate to as long as you do not take things too seriously. Give it a try, I think you will like it.

I thought it was funny, but in a way, highly useful. You can read it if you have free time.

True Words of Wisdom

This book offers some of the best advice you will ever get. I’d write more but unfortunately I must get back to doing nothing.
